EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment during the First World War in 1914. In this illustration from The Great War by HW Wilson, we witness a French dragoon on horseback delivering a passport to alert a Belgian picket. The scene is filled with tension and anticipation as the soldier, dressed in his distinctive uniform and helmet, approaches the checkpoint. The dragoon's horse stands tall and majestic, showcasing its strength and loyalty amidst the chaos of war. The rider's determined expression reflects his commitment to duty as he delivers vital documents that could potentially alter the course of events. The image highlights not only the role of soldiers but also emphasizes how animals played an essential part in warfare during this period. Both man and beast are united in their mission to protect their country against enemy forces. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this historical moment, emphasizing the gravity of war while capturing intricate details such as clothing, weaponry, and footwear. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless men who fought bravely for their nations. As we reflect upon this photograph print by Unknown creator under HW Wilson's publication, it transports us back to an era defined by conflict but also showcases human resilience amidst adversity.
